"Inside information" furoished The
Sun by those in a position to know;
gives promise that "The Belle of
Barcelona," the operetta to be given
in the Community .Building on Tuesday evening,. March 27, will be the
best offering of its kind ever presented
by the good singers and actors of
North Canton. The costumes are
elaborate, the stage setting artistic,
the dancing- attractive and the company is well drilled in their parts.
The story is of a Spanish gin who
while visiting America met a charming American youth, .with a "love at
first sight" result. The young man is
sent to Spain and again meets the
Senorita.
A bad Spaniard, a clever Irish character, an aspiring "mama" and an
English governess all enter into the
plot of helping or hindering the two
young lovers. Every song and each
act will hold the interest.
TicketB are moderately priced in
spite of the expense of producing this
operetta. Adult tickets are 35$; children's, 25c. Fifteen cents extra secures a reserved seat. If you do.not
see "The Belle of Barcelona" you will
miss a treat. The entire cast will be
found on page 4 of today's Sun;

Elmer E. Miller Says Land of Sunshine Is "Normal."
' Elmer E. Miller and wife returned
on Friday from Bradenton, Florida,
where they spent six weeks. As president of the Stark County Foundry of
Canton, Mr. Miller's views on the business situation are of course worth
having, so a writer for The Sun asked
him if Florida was recovering from
the slump it ran into last year.
"Yes, indeed," said Mr. . Miller.
"Florida is going- ahead rationally.
Jacksonville is prosperous. St
Petersburg has just dedicated the
causeway, and Bradenton, a fine town
of about 15,000 people, is not feeling
the slump experienced in many parts
of America. "I have great faith in
Florida, and perhaps it was a good
thing for the state when the speculators got 'hit.' Of course I feel sorry
for the innocent investors, but when
people expect big profits on their investments they must expect to be
stung. Yes, Florida is a goo-4 state,
and it is developing into.a great state.
1 am fond of Florida and its people,"
said Mr. Miller.

THE TOURNAMENT GAMES
The North Canton high girls lost
the .final game in the county tournament to Minerva on Saturday night,
by a 25 to 23 score. The boys lost
the final game in their tournament to
Beach City by the same score.
North Canton won over North Industry in the -afternoon game without
much exertion. They secured an eleven-
point lead during the 'first half and
held the edge until the game ended
18 to 13. All the girls had a chance to
play in this game, but North Industry
never seriously threatened,, though
.they, brought their score up to within
five points of North Canton. ,,
In Favor of Minerva
In the final game with Minerva, the
N. C. girls started to score early and
secured eight points while Minerva
was freely shooting around the basket, but not in it. The -accuracy was
reversed during the second period and
the half ended 12 to 10 in favor of
Minerva.
The score shifted often during the,
last half with the teams alternately
holding the lead. The score was tied
with two minutes to play. Then Die-
tz-ich and Menard each scored from
the field for Minerva.- Cossaboom soon
dropped one . through and. Minerva
called time with one second to play.
North Canton secured possession of
the ball at the tip-off but the gunbark-
ed before a shot could be made.
I Three To Graduate
This was the final game in high
school basketball for three members
of the North Canton girls' team. They
are Eleanor Mansfield, forward, and
Catharine Bishop and Catharine Nelius, guards. Their places will be difficult to fill because they have been
dependable and regular players on the
team for the last two seasons.

The lure of North Canton as a
"home-loving community" is attracting a number of people living elsewhere, and knowing this several North
Canton men have begun the erection -
of dwelling houses which tliey expect to
sell as soon as completed. Clerk Lester Braucher has issued permits t«i
Henry Dieringer for two dwelling-
houses on Witwer street, and Mr.
Dieringer and his son, who have had
considerable experience in building
affairs, expect to erect more houses
before Fall -makes its appearance.
George Dieringer is an architect,
contractor and builder, and he is well
and favorably known in Wheeling, W.
Va., where he erected a number of
houses. The two residences he will put,
up with his father between Pershing
and Taft streets, will be full two
stories, English style, and modern
throughout to the last item.
Henry Dieringer opened and developed the Adena addition about ten
years ago. He has great faith in
North Canton, so much so, in fact,
that he induced his son George to settle here and help him in the erection
of houses.
W. P. Newton has taken out a permit for a dweiling- on Wise street. It
is said by Newton's friends that he has
great confidence in the future of
North Canton and that he will build
a number of houses within the next
few years.
Attorney C. H. Corbett is said to
have a number of plans for additional
houses, but no date has been set. Alfred E. Cashner is building a large
public garage on North Main street,
and the work is being pushed vigorously. He recently removed the house
which stood on the garage ground to
a lot on Apple alloy. -.-<>[ -.— .. ._ s

One of the few writers whose fiction stories can be easily and almost
literally translated to the screen is
Zane Grey, famous for his Western
romances, according to Director John
Waters.
The latest Zane Grey story to be
filmed for Paramount by Waters is
"Nevada" reaching the Community
Building on Friday night, which has
quick changes in situation and a plot
of thrilling adventure that develops
rapidly. Its locale is the cattle country in the days of turbulence and gun
play.
Gary Cooper is the hero, Thelma.
Todd supplies the love interest and the
villainy is contributed by William
Powell.
The proceeds are for the benefit of
the Senior class of N. C. Hi and will
go toward defraying their expenses to
Washington.
Oother features are a news reel,
The Collegians and an Eddie Guest

Darwin P. Kingsley, president of
the New York Life Insurance company, says that our government will .
perish if it follows "the foolish philosophy of the Declaration of Independence." What he had in mind
was undoubtedly the statement that
"all men are created equal."
But Jefferson did; notanean.that all
men would make equally satisfactory
rulers. He meant, as he explains in
the next phrase, that all men were
equal in rights to "Life, Liberty and
the pursuit of Happiness." To assume that he meant that all men
were equally able in every way would
surprise Jefferson a good deal. He
was too wise a man for that. Ho

Barcelona," the operetta to be given
in the Community .Building on Tuesday evening,. March 27, will be the
best offering of its kind ever presented
by the good singers and actors of
North Canton. The costumes are
elaborate, the stage setting artistic,
the dancing- attractive and the company is well drilled in their parts.
The story is of a Spanish gin who
while visiting America met a charming American youth, .with a "love at
first sight" result. The young man is
sent to Spain and again meets the
Senorita.
A bad Spaniard, a clever Irish character, an aspiring "mama" and an
English governess all enter into the
plot of helping or hindering the two
young lovers. Every song and each
act will hold the interest.

Elmer E. Miller Says Land of Sunshine Is "Normal."
' Elmer E. Miller and wife returned
on Friday from Bradenton, Florida,
where they spent six weeks. As president of the Stark County Foundry of
Canton, Mr. Miller's views on the business situation are of course worth
having, so a writer for The Sun asked
him if Florida was recovering from
the slump it ran into last year.
"Yes, indeed," said Mr. . Miller.
"Florida is going- ahead rationally.
Jacksonville is prosperous. St
Petersburg has just dedicated the
causeway, and Bradenton, a fine town
of about 15,000 people, is not feeling
the slump experienced in many parts
of America. "I have great faith in
Florida, and perhaps it was a good
thing for the state when the speculators got 'hit.' Of course I feel sorry
for the innocent investors, but when
people expect big profits on their investments they must expect to be
stung. Yes, Florida is a goo-4 state,
and it is developing into.a great state.

THE TOURNAMENT GAMES
The North Canton high girls lost
the .final game in the county tournament to Minerva on Saturday night,
by a 25 to 23 score. The boys lost
the final game in their tournament to
Beach City by the same score.
North Canton won over North Industry in the -afternoon game without
much exertion. They secured an eleven-
point lead during the 'first half and
held the edge until the game ended
18 to 13. All the girls had a chance to
play in this game, but North Industry
never seriously threatened,, though
.they, brought their score up to within
five points of North Canton. ,,
In Favor of Minerva
In the final game with Minerva, the
N. C. girls started to score early and
secured eight points while Minerva
was freely shooting around the basket, but not in it. The -accuracy was
reversed during the second period and
the half ended 12 to 10 in favor of
Minerva.
The score shifted often during the,
last half with the teams alternately
holding the lead. The score was tied
with two minutes to play. Then Die-
tz-ich and Menard each scored from
the field for Minerva.- Cossaboom soon
dropped one . through and. Minerva
called time with one second to play.
North Canton secured possession of
the ball at the tip-off but the gunbark-
ed before a shot could be made.
I Three To Graduate
This was the final game in high
school basketball for three members
of the North Canton girls' team. They
are Eleanor Mansfield, forward, and
Catharine Bishop and Catharine Nelius, guards. Their places will be difficult to fill because they have been
dependable and regular players on the
team for the last two seasons.

"I don't blame them so much," said
Police Mai-shal-Bachtel to. a writer for
The Sun this Wednesday moming. "It
is annoying and it i.s also dangerous."
Two men had just left him after
complaining about parked cars along
the sidewalks without tail lights burning at night.
"It is dangerous," he repeated,
"and unless a light is left burning yOu
can't tell wliat you are hitting until
you hit it). I hope drivers will protect
themselves by keeping a light going
while theii- cars are parked."
